1- Brothers.
2- Saints.
3- Faithful Brethren in Christ.

e) We Bless other True Believers in Fellowship with us in Peace.
f) We recognise the Source of our Fellowship as being God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
(This QT reminds me that there is a real spiritual dimension in True Fellowship In God’s Family)

‘Christ’s Death For Us On The Cross.’
1 Peter 2:24.
a) Jesus Christ bore our sins in His Own Body on the Cross.
b) Through this we can be dead to sins.
c) Through this we should live unto Righteousness.
d) By the stripes of Jesus we were healed.
(Through this Second one I am so grateful for Christ’s Death For Me On be The Cross)

Chris.
We need to be in the kind of Fellowship where we can clearly state who we are in Jesus Christ without fear or shame. Christians can be so shallow sometimes, in that we live compromising and secular lives in the same spirit as the World system. That is really not the way. The Fellowship that we have should be with other True Believers and we should build each other up in that kind of Fellowship.
